It Runs in the Family
Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Westridge , Rawalpindi
Hum apna pait kaat kr aap ka pait bharein gay (We shall cut down our morsel to give it to you).
Hum uss waqt tak chain se nahi bethein gay jub tak aap ki takleef door na kar dein gay (We shall not rest in peace till we bring relief and an end to your miseries). So announced Bilawal Zardari Bhutto at Mithi, Thar, the other day which was reminiscent of the emotional but hollow frenzies of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's ' Roti, kapra aur makan' which remain unrealized after more than four decades now.
Young Bilawal, you have a long way to go. Don’t make promises that you may not be able to fulfill. What to talk of cutting down your morsels, you would not even remember the famine- stricken faces the moment you are back in the lavishness and opulence of Bilawal House with plentiful food around. If at all you wish to be a true leader of these wretched poor people just arrange to return a part of the Swiss Bank account of your Co-Chairman to them, please.
